BE CRAZY WITH LOVE

                                 The earth bears
                           every sorrow of the lost,
                      those who see life through the pain
                      of their anger, their bitter blame,
                           their insatiable greed--
                  those who afflict the innocent with hatred.
 
                              Be crazy with love!
                   The Earth cries out for your jubilation!
                         You who have rent your heart
                that the primordial, infinite sheets of Light,
                     — the young joy of God — might shine.
 
                           Look up. Ah the blue sky!
                          It is a canopy of paradise.
                        Look down. Ah! The green earth
                               beneath our feet.
                      It is Eden waiting to be restored.
                          Look around. In all things
                          is the Miracle of miracles!
 
                           Here is the face of God!
                              Be crazy with love!
